Turmeric Believed To Be Helpful In The Treatment Of Polycystic Kidney Disease

(Presseportal openBroadcast) - Orlando, FL – May 31, 2016 - Kidney disorders are among the most prevalent conditions nowadays. Unfortunately, many sufferers depend on organ transplants to live. There are surgeries and medications available, but there are also natural remedies thought to be helpful for the condition.

Turmeric believed to be helpful in the treatment of polycystic kidney disease. The kidney is one of the most important organs in the body. It works by excreting the by-product waste materials from the food people consume, oxygen they breathe, and other things they ingest for survival.

According to statistics, 1 out of 3 individuals in the United States are at risk of developing some kidney disorder. There are also around 26 million people in the country who have kidney disorder. The kidneys are also susceptible to damage, infection, or failure.

One of the kidney disorders is the polycystic kidney disease, which is present by birth. There are also disorders that are acquired over time and result from an infection or metabolic disease like diabetes.

There are treatments for kidney disorders such as kidney transplant, medications, and dialysis. However, there are also natural remedies such as turmeric.

This ancient, medicinal spice has been believed in Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine as an herb that can treat almost all medical conditions. It contains a phytochemical called curcumin, which is thought to contribute to most of the spice’s pharmacological properties.

Polycystic kidney disease can trigger the formation of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys. This genetic disorder can cause enormous swelling of the kidney.

In a study, the researchers tried to see what the inhibitory effects of curcumin are in the renal cyst formation. The experiment used to different cell lines. It was found that curcumin helped inhibit the development of cyst at maximum dose. The inhibition reached up to 62 percent.

The researchers also found that curcumin helped in slowing down the enlargement of cysts in both the cell lines. What makes it even more interesting is that it did not cause cell death of any toxicity at low concentrations.

Thus, the findings of the research have lead researchers to believe that curcumin has the potential to inhibit the formation and enlargement of cysts, and is potentially a suitable treatment for polycystic kidney disease.

Turmeric powder can be used in preparing a wide selection of delicious food and beverages. There are also curcumin supplements available for individuals who want to conveniently and easily take advantage of its healing effects.
